STANDAR SEMANAL-947.Goodbye Pork Pie Hat,.VINILOS MITICOS DEL JAZZ.-947.THE DANNY MOSS QUARTET-WEAVER OF DREAMS,.JAZZACTUALIDAD.-947.NUCLI TRIO-INTERPRETANDO LA MUSICA LAIETANA Moss, hijo de un fabricante de herramientas, aprendió a tocar el saxofón por su cuenta . Tras dejar la escuela, tocó en el quinteto de Wally Rogers en 1943. Tras el servicio militar de 1945 a 1948, donde tocó en una orquesta militar, se convirtió en miembro de la Orquesta Vic Lewis , y luego de Tommy Sampson, de donde Ted Heath lo contrató a él y a otros siete músicos. Después tocó con Johnny Dankworth , con quien actuó en el Festival de Jazz de Newport de 1959 , y también con Alex Welsh . En 1962, Dankworth ya no podía financiar una banda permanente, por lo que Moss trabajó con Humphrey Lyttelton . Desde mediados de la década de 1960 en adelante, tocó principalmente con su propio cuarteto, a menudo acompañando a su esposa, la cantante Jeanie Lambe , con quien actuó en el Festival de Jazz de Montreux de 1972 . A partir de 1970, también formó parte del CCS de Alexis Korner . Grabó también con Tony Bennett , Ella Fitzgerald , Bing Crosby , Sarah Vaughan y Rosemary Clooney . En 1980, fue uno de los miembros fundadores de Pizza Express All Stars , con quienes actuó en el Festival de Jazz de Niza, y también tocó en la big band de Charlie Watts . En 1989, él y su esposa se establecieron en Australia , donde había estado de gira con éxito desde 1983. En 2003, grabó un aclamado álbum a dúo con Stan Tracey . Su hijo es el bajista Danny Moss Jr. Moss se sentía como en casa en la tradición de Coleman Hawkins y Ben Webster . The Independent lo incluye entre los mejores saxofonistas tenores de Gran Bretaña. Nucli Trio nace en el año 2018 y lo forman Guillem Plana a la guitarra, Aleix Forts al contrabajo y David Viñolas a la batería. En sus inicios, empiezan haciendo estándares de los 50’s y de los 60’s del pasado siglo y poco a poco van añadiendo composiciones propias. Rápidamente, Nucli Trio comienzan a girar y en el año 2021 editan un disco homónimo en este mismo sello. Paralelamente se establecen como grupo residente en la Jazz Cava de Vic donde ofrecen los recitales Nucli Trio invita a… donde comparten música con figuras de la escena jazzística. En 2023 se conmemoró el 50 aniversario de la apertura de la sala Zeleste de Víctor Jou. El Zeleste fue inicialmente una sala de copas y conciertos pero poco a poco fue creciendo y se estableció una oficina de management, un sello discográfico y una escuela de música moderna. Podemos afirmar que gracias al Zeleste se consolidó toda una serie de grupos e intérpretes del todo transversales: la Orquestra Mirasol, Jordi Sabatés, Toti Soler, Companyia Elèctrica Dharma, Blay Tritono, Barcelona Traction, Música Urbana, Tropopausa, Jaume Sisa o Gato Pérez entre otros. El 50 aniversario de la apertura del Zeleste fue la chispa ideal para que Nucli Trio empezara a dar forma al proyecto de interpretar la Ona laietana con la colaboración de músicos de aquella época. Elegir el repertorio fue complejo porque era necesario captar toda la esencia de los grupos e intérpretes. Después había que establecer a los músicos layetanos que podrían formar parte del proyecto. Estos fueron Miquel Àngel Lizandra de la Orquestra Mirasol, Jordi Soley de la Companyia Elèctrica Dharma y Eduard Altaba de Blay Tritono y Tropopausa. Los tres cubrían un enorme abanico de todo lo que significaba Zeleste. Miquel Àngel la fuerza renovadora e iniciática de la Orquestra Mirasol, Jordi Soley el empuje y el éxito de la Companyia Elèctrica Dharma, y ​​Eduard Altaba como representante del grueso de músicos más experimentales. Los seis empezaron a ensayar para aparecer en el Festival de Jazz de Vic y en la Nova Jazz Cava de Terrassa. De estos conciertos y del buen entendimiento entre el sexteto, surgió la idea de grabar un disco, el que tienes entre las manos. Además, para la grabación se sumó una colaboración muy especial, la del guitarrista Jordi Bonell que había militado en Secta Sònica y Música Urbana. Bonell puso su guitarra en “No em val haver viscut” de Toti Soler y Joan Vergés. La última en sumarse al proyecto fue Alba Careta que ejemplifica a la perfección este trabajo intergeneracional tan bonito y necesario. Careta toca la trompeta en «No juguis amb set miralls» de la Orquestra Mirasol y canta en «No em val haver viscut». Por su parte, los músicos layetanos brillan en sus respectivos campos. Así nos encontramos a un Miquel Àngel Lizandra liderando con fuerza y ​​personalidad las piezas que aquí se interpretan de la Orquestra Mirasol. Eduard Altaba toma protagonismo a través de dos piezas de Tropopausa: “La mata” y “Beixamela”, donde escribe unos nuevos arreglos que nos invitan a una relectura. Por su parte, Jordi Soley nos muestra una nueva visión de “Ones nones” de la Companyia Elèctrica Dharma que él ha titulado “On ones nones”. Magistral también es la ejecución a piano solo en la última pista de la primera cara donde relee diferentes trozos de “Adéu, estrella del dia”, “Mitjanit”, “Ball llunàtic toc” y “L’Oucomballa”. Solos, Nucli Trio interpretan un clásico del repertorio de Jaume Sisa, “L’home dibuixat”. Sorprende el uso de la melodía a través del contrabajo de Aleix Forts. No podían faltar un par de composiciones propias. En primer lugar «Laietània» de David Viñolas. Inspirada en el sonido layetano e interpretada por Nucli Trio en solitario brilla por la finura y el buen gusto del guitarrista Guillem Plana. Por último y no por ello menos importante, “Subwoofers”, una improvisación libre de Eduard Altaba y Aleix Forts en la que únicamente intervienen los dos contrabajos y que hace de puente entre las dos piezas de Tropopausa. En definitiva, estamos ante un gran trabajo en el que Nucli Trio ha sabido encontrar todos los ingredientes necesarios para dar forma a una obra histórica tanto por su repertorio como por la importancia de sus invitados. Una relectura intergeneracional excelente y necesaria. Àlex Gómez-Font Este trabajo que tienes en tus manos quiere ser un homenaje a la época dorada del Zeleste y a los músicos que formaron parte de esa Barcelona underground, contracultural y ecléctica de los 70, época que nosotros no vivimos. Un movimiento por el que pasaron todo tipo de artistas que han dejado un legado importante, no sólo en la obra musical, sino también en la pedagógica, ya que muchos de ellos fueron profesores de la primera escuela de música moderna del país, ubicada en el mismo Zeleste. Un movimiento poco conocido que no ha trascendido a las generaciones que le han sucedido. Por eso lo queremos reivindicar y poner en valor con este álbum. Nucli Trio hemos trabajado este repertorio con mucho cariño. Esto nos ha permitido echar una mirada atrás y descubrir algunas joyas musicales de nuestro país que desconocíamos.Reinterpretar estos temas y compartirlos con algunos de los músicos que formaron parte activa de la Ona Laietana ha sido una experiencia que nos ha hecho crecer y que nos anima a seguir adelante, haciendo música más allá de etiquetas y modas. Queremos dedicar este disco a todos los músicos que formaron parte de la Ona Laietana: a Víctor Jou y Rafael Moll, auténticos visionarios y precursores en una Barcelona gris y franquista; y especialmente a Jordi Bonell, que se entusiasmó con la idea de participar en el disco y que desgraciadamente no lo ha podido ver acabado.

The largely forgotten clarinet player Archie Semple was a mainstay in Alex Welsh's great band in the 1950's and 60's before suffering an emotional and physical breakdown that sadly ended his playing days. Here is a sample of the relatively few tracks he recorded under his own name, featuring Welsh, Dickie Hawdon on trumpet, Roy Crimmins on trombone, Fred Hunt on piano and others, but focusing on the leader's clarinet, reflecting the twin influences of Pee Wee Russell and Edmond Hall --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-clark49/support

Alex Welsh was known as a traditional/dixieland trumpet player in the 1950's and mid 1960's. By the late 1960's the band had evolved from a Chicago styled group to a mainstream unit featuring trombonist Roy Williams, reed player Johnny Barnes, pianist Fred Hunt, guitar/banjo player Jim Douglas and drummer Lennie Hastings. Ranging from New Orleans numbers through swing and Gerry Mulligan tunes, this group had a good ten year run. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-clark49/support

With the rise of working remotely and the sense of freedom that comes with it, more people than ever are taking the road less traveled and are choosing to explore the world off-grid in a van. Join today's podcast guests Alex Welsh and Pat Bruns of Yama Vans as we discuss all things van life, from part-time adventuring to full-time living and everything in between. At its core, the transition to van life is about becoming a minimalist; realizing that we don't need to be surrounded by material objects in order to live or travel happily. Long gone are the days of hitting the road in a gas-guzzling RV packed full of creature comforts, and here to stay are the ideas of minimalist living, conscious consumption, and the freedom to go anywhere in the world with ease. Listen in as Alex and Pat share their thoughts on these topics and others, such as the rising popularity of van life and how Yama Vans works closely with their clients to create the perfect balance between comfort and functionality.

“The fans just want to know who the fuck the artist is.” —Andre "Herm" Lewis About: For a place that proudly heralds slogans like #BlackLivesMatter, the homes of San Francisco house very few Black people. What’s happened to the African-American community in San Francisco is a much more complex tale than just being pushed out by young and transient up-and-comers. Instead, it involves a deeply-rooted history spread across generations with a comet-sized impact that is still being felt today. And for the sake of this three-part story, it begins with the very polarizing San Francisco nickname: Frisco. In Part I, we explore why some view this term to be as offensive as the F-word and spend some time with those who simply don’t give a fuck.
